(Laura, this is the eggnog recipe I got when I was in college and have been using it even since. The second recipe is from Southern Living. A lot of people like the recipe with the whipping cream in it.
Eggnog (Southern Living)
6 eggs, separated
¾ cup sugar
½ tsp vanilla

3 cups whipping cream

Beat egg yolks until thick and lemon colored; gradually add ¾ cup sugar, vanilla, and ¼ tsp nutmeg, beating well at medium speed of an electric mixer. Cover and chill 8 hours.
Place chilled mixture in a punch bowl; gradually stir in cream and milk. Beat egg whites (at room temperature) in a large mixing bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually add ¼ cup sugar, and beat until stiff. Fold whites into chilled mixture. Sprinkle with nutmeg. Yield: about 3 quarts.
